About the garden:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

David Patrick and his family garden together in their backyard. With raised beds that grow annual fruits, veggies, and flowers,\u00a0as well as and perennial plantings of fruit trees, fruit shrubs, and grape vines: there is a bounty growing at this urban garden. Between the different raised beds and perennial plantings, the garden features multiple systems. The gardens are supported by a variety of inputs for the soil — from their chickens’ bedding and manure, to ash from their neighbor’s woodstove, to comfrey plantings.\u00a0And among their many raised beds, each of the two kids in the family\u00a0have one that they plant and tend themselves. Learn about the different elements at play in this garden, from our hosts, David and the kids.<\/p>\n
